âFor the past 25 years, we have taken
the vision of the pioneering fair traders
to the wider public, directly reaching
over 1.3 million smallholders and
workers. The model has been shown to
work; now we need to take it wider. We
seek to be at the cutting edge of
reforming global trade in favour of
justice, unlocking the power of
disadvantaged producers and
workers.â

Powering Up
Producers
Over the past 12 months we continued to transfer
more responsibilities and services to the South,
where they belong.
Up to now producer services have been coordinated centrally by
Fairtrade International, with locally-based staff working with producers in
the field. But in a true display of producer leadership, producer networks
have started to coordinate this important work themselves.

âThe unique relationship between the
north and the south, a strong voice and
role for producers and workers, makes
Fairtrade different from all other
competing ethical schemes. This is what
real empowerment is about.â

Fairtrade Sales
Worldwide

Sales continues to grow strongly across most
markets. Germany has broken the half billion mark
and South Africa continues its strong upward
trend.
The strong results mean Fair Trade USAâs
withdrawal from the international system at the end
of 2011 has only resulted in a slight dip (-4%) in
total global Fairtrade sales. Average sales in all
other Fairtrade markets increased by over 20
percent compared to 2011.
